So the answer to your question is to use Blade of Carnage in your primary hand from your current level "20" until level 46 and then switch to swift blade of zek in your primary hand.....
Here is why...
The forumla for damage bonus is (CurrentLevel - 25) / 3
The formula for damage is (Base * 2) + Bonus + StrMod ...ignore the str mod
the damage bonus applies only to primary hand. This means that lower delay weapons get better in the primary hand as you level ...
Blade of Carnage 15/23 has a base ratio of about .652
Swift Blade of Zek 11/18 has a base ratio of .611
without accounting for damage bonus, BoC is clearly better
Once you have a damage bonus of 7 however
29/18 (1.611) is greater than 37/23 (1.608) .... ((2 * 11) + 7)/18 > ((2 * 15) + 7)/18
At level 46 your primary damage bonus goes up to 7 because (46 - 25) / 3 = 7
